In this video I install and test a Treble Bleed Circuit. This is a follow-up to the LP Page Wiring Harness I installed. When rolling back the Volume Knob on the guitar there was a large high-end loss noticed. Installing this easy and simple circuit helped with that problem.
Thanks to Majd Zarhani for pointing this out and inspiring me to find a solution.

I’ve been using treble bleeds for years. I never understood why I was using them, but I knew it made a difference. This is the most helpful explanation I’ve seen! Great video!!

@jrgguitars3620 Год назад

Thank you! It's such a simple mod, with great results. Thanks for watching.

FINALLY someone who marks there knob positions god i legit have looked through video after video looking for answers and you gave me all the answers to what i needed, thanks JRG guitars.

@jrgguitars3620 Год назад

It is the only way to accurately track where I set the knob every time. It make it a lot easier to know what I was doing. Thanks for watching.

Excellent and well done! I’ve used a treble bleed before on my Les Paul’s. However , they were what they call modern wiring. I’ve since wired my Les Paul to 50’s wiring. It would be interesting to see a comparison in tone with 50’s wiring and with standard wiring. Everyone seems to think that there is a tone difference , but I’m not hearing it ! Thanks again

I haven't messed around with 50's wiring, but maybe I should. To be honest, I don't use my volume or tone near enough anyway. I'm stuck in my high gain rut of turning everything on 10 all the time. lol Thanks for watching.

Both kits use a .001uF cap. StewMac resistor is 230K. The other brand is 250K.

@spokes28 Год назад

Excellent evaluation of the circuit. It makes me wonder how 1000 ohm pots would compare to the circuit bleed that you have.

@jrgguitars3620 Год назад

That gets above my technical knowledge, which is pretty limited. thanks for watching.

@majd.z 2 года назад

Very informative! Everything one needs to know, thank you so much! I will look Into a 50s wiring as a comparison also!

@jrgguitars3620 2 года назад

Let me know how the 50s wiring goes.

@@jrgguitars3620 whats the EQ software you're using? I want to make a video comparison and its a great idea to show the difference in frequencies! thank you

@jrgguitars3620 2 года назад

@@majd.z That was Cakewalk DAW software. It's a free download, but for Windows only (no Mac support). I use Cakewalk as my DAW for recording. I didn't record for the video though. I just enabled the EQ and setup the track to monitor the input and I used screen capture software to "capture" the live EQ. Here's a link: www.bandlab.com/products/cakewalk?lang=en If you're a Mac user I'm sure you can find a free DAW and use it the same way. Here's some: midination.com/daw/free-daw/best-free-daw/ I can't wait to see your video!

Great video….very informative. Background music is too load and distracting

@jrgguitars3620 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching! It's been a learning process with making videos. I like the addition of some background music, but I do keep the level a little hot of some of my videos. Especially some of the older videos, they can be pretty raw. Thanks!

Show, man

@pizzaROX 2 года назад

Wow. Thanks for the detail! Quick question. Do I need a specific value treble bleed cap/resistor for a 1 meg volume pot ? 🤔

@jrgguitars3620 2 года назад

Hmmm. That is a good question. I do not know the answer. I'm sure the guys at 920D would know the answer. usually the 1 meg pots are used for active pickups, right? Are you seeing that same problem with the active pickups?

@pizzaROX 2 года назад

@@jrgguitars3620 hey hey! Thanks for getting back to me. I have passive humbuckers. My jaguar came stock with 1 meg volume and 1 meg tone. They are used for a brighter tone is all. I actually gave it a shot and installed a mojo tone volume mod I ordered off sweetwater. It was a 220K resistor in parallel with a 471pf capacitor aaaand It works just great ! 😄🤷‍♂️ hope this helps other people 🙏

@jrgguitars3620 2 года назад

@@pizzaROX Very nice. I am happy it worked out well. I really like the mod. It was cheap and easy. It's not the last guitar I will use it in. Thanks for watching!

@louisb7458 Год назад

Did you try the caps without the resistors? They will clean up low volume even more - would be great to see?

@jrgguitars3620 Год назад

I only tried the ones in the video. To be honest, it was my first time using a treble bleed. I've always pegged my volume and tone pot and never had a need for the treble bleed. Only recently have I become more "refined" and touched either knob. lol.

@lovrozuzic7246 2 года назад

hi, which program do you use for visualizing frequencies?

@jrgguitars3620 2 года назад

That was the stock EQ that comes with Cakewalk DAW software. Free download!

@nikazoran2558 Год назад

So, does Jimy Page wiring (21 sound) had treble bleed and what kind pots are used. Regards

@jrgguitars3620 Год назад

The kit that I used has 500K pots. There was no treble bleed in it, but the addition was cheap, easy and had great results. Thanks for watching!

@roronoazoro7777 2 года назад

A500k or B500k for volume pots?

@jrgguitars3620 2 года назад

Thanks for watching. I cannot see the markings on the pots. the push/pull switch is obscuring it. The 920D website doesn't say anything about it either. Sorry, I just can't tell what it is.

Definitely A
